About the Magic tab... there is fire, earth and light and two side buttons, that are the same. However, the description says, there are 7 magic schools (as we already know). So, I think, that those two buttons serve as navigation arrows... or, the developers did not complete the other magic schools... or - maybe it's like in Age of Wonders - that you can choose just some of the elements.

Please, please, please, I am begging on my knees; give me a hint, that the Sanctuary lineup has changed.

I don't understand. They are only 5 tabs/circles in the picture and 2 of them seems like empty/not available(?).
That picture was edited after being taken. There's a part right to the 5 magic circles that has been covered up with copypasted graphics.

Seriously doubt nothing.

The sooner they reveal the last faction and the neutrals, the better. To clear all this misunderstanding.
Well, I'm not worried about that, actually. I'm glad that the units remain in the game, either as Spring Spirits or as Water Elementals. What I didn't want to see happening was to drop them just because some people asked for it.
Either they're part of the Sanctuary or neutrals now, it's the same to me, because they're still in the game.

More screenshots in the artwork thread? Oh man, too many news and stuff to comment on! LOL
In the first one, the fight of Haven troops vs. the Centaurs, where's the Hero? Probably there should be a Haven hero somewhere, right?

Last faction is Sanctuary!
Quote: Ubisoft wird uns verzeihen, wenn wir hier schon mal vorgreifen können. Denn die fünfte Partei, »Sanctuary« genannt (was auf Deutsch ebenfalls »Zuflucht« heißt -- viel Spaß an die Übersetzer!), ist tatsächlich ein Novum für die Heroes-Reihe. Zum ersten Mal stellen die Nagas eine eigene Fraktion, wasseraffine Schlangenwesen. Die waren schon für den Vorgänger Heroes 5 geplant, seit damals kursieren Konzeptzeichnungen im Internet. Ihre Kultur ist stark japanisch inspiriert, über sie herrscht ein Daimyo, Figuren heißen Jubo oder Hiroshi. Heldin der Sanctuary-Kampagne ist Slavas Tochter Irina, die von ihrem Vater in eine Hochzeit mit -- ausgerechnet -- Gerhart gezwungen wurde und zu den Nagas floh. Irinas Armee rekrutiert sich überwiegend aus neuen Einheiten, darunter Haikrieger, Flussgeister und Wasserdrachen. Für altgediente Heroes-Spieler dürfte diese Fraktion deshalb die spannendste sein.

You're sure Sanctuary's the right name and not what the guy who wrote this article just read what the fans were calling it?
I mean, how on earth did we get it right?
EDIT: By the way, someone please translate Flussgeister?

Quote: Here is a new gameplay video from german magazine "Gamestar", it`s over 3:00 minutes long and contains fights against water and earth elementals and a boss fight against mother namratu !!
By far the best video yet released !!!
Now that's what I call news. Combat that doesn't involve the same creatures every time and the confirmation that a unit who was thought to be part of the 5th faction is in fact a Water Elemental.
After watching this video, I have to say I love the Earth Elementals. They look really good and quite powerful.
Not a fan of the Sister/Vestal being a melee unit. That just doesn't fit in with the idea of her being a support unit. Now, I really hope the Glories are a shooter because I'd hate for Haven to only have one ranged unit.

general sense of what was said in the article on the fifth faction: the fact that it will Naga, a leader of a daughter, Irina Fame, which runs to the naga in order to avoid marriage to the Duke of Gerhart, whom her father has decided to give. Army will emerge from the new units, such as warriors, sharks and spirits of the rivers
Google translate Quicky!

Okay, so I ran the article through Google Translate
From the translated wording, it seems like they know about the 5th faction, but they're only going to mention some information about it. They mentioned Irina is the 5th campaign hero, and that woman in those level up screens with Slava Griffin is called "Jennifer" (though it's a working name). They do mention "Water river spirits" in the description, which means the spring spirit might still be in the faction (BOOOOOOOOO!)
If someone can actually translate the article, that would be nice. The translated article via Google Translate doesn't make much sense in some places.

Quote: Never had any aspiration for Hungarian
Which is kinda ironic because it is closest foreign country to where i live (like 80km air line). I don't know a single word of it. (well unless you count the stew names which are picked from Hungarian even here)
Btw, necromancer advanced classes are Embalmer and Reaper.
So where do you live? Romania?
Well it is considered the most difficult language in the world by some linguists (at least one of)
I know a bit of Hungarian grammar, but am currently busy learning Finnish
...I haven't been here for a long time, could someone please summarise what the general discussion is about at the moment? The pictures of the day etc?

Don't count on it. In the Haven info released ages ago, it specifically mentions lack of Ranged power as being on of Haven's weaknesses.
Water Elemental looking like River Spirit and River Spirit still being in the game will be just a big laugh at our face. As if to say: "Well you wanted to complain about River Spirits and Ice Maidens being too similar? Now HERE'S something to complain about, you ****es." Hope there comes some other solution when info is released.

I don't have a clue as to what the Water Elemental will look like. I don't know why anyone would think that it's going to look like the River Spirit but I sure hope it won't.
Well, we got nothing on that so we just need to wait and see. Everything will be revealed soon enough, I take it...

Either the Water Elemental looks like some kind of non-humanoid creature OR the river spirit got replaced, I mean they specifically took notice of the Ghoul/Maniac/Tormentor situation and gave us a screenshot indicating they felt comfortable with the level of identity.
So they do want to at least have units distinguishable at a glance from one another.
This gives me the confidence to say that we won't get a faction creature and a neutral that look nearly identical.

Quote: Will the river spirit groupies please get some inspiriation and for once pray with us so that the thing Alci says doesn't come true...
A river spirit and a the same looking water elemental would make me not buy the game, really i'm serious.
There are enough other cool game coming out, but if they do this I won't buy heroes out of pure protest.
Well, hopefully we'll be able to Mod the River Spirit out of Sanctuary if that's the case, so don't sign off just for that reason.

Mods are never the answer. We should not have to mod something to make it look better.
And you know how Nightterror hates these mods. I mean, remove the river spirit from Sanctuary and replace it with another existing reskinned, recolored unit from the game? Hmph... Rage in three, two, one....
